[ngw] smartphones

Didn't I recall seeing something where if you had OES2, you could run sles so long as the services were only available to licensed OES2 users?  Or am I dreaming..

No.  Here is what is written:

"*Note that the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server entitlement provided with GroupWise does not apply to this requirement. Customers will need to purchase SUSE Linux Enterprise Server subscriptions to run Novell Data Synchronizer."

Does the SLES entitlement that comes with GroupWise cover usage of the mobility pack?  I would be shocked if it did not...
